H. Labelle regarding the establishment of a sewing room for Indian women in Osage County. Labelle also mentioned R. B. Weaver and requested help in finding him a steady job. Senator Thomas promised to look into these matters and keep Labelle updated. Another letter from David Puckee inquired about the withholding of 20% of wages for relief work, which was explained by the Superintendent of the Potawatomi Agency in a report. Senator Thomas assured Puckee of his assistance if needed.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
